Friendly and accommodating staff. Hard- working cleaning staff. Area is run-down, loud locals in the are shout out vulgar statements in the mornings and evenings- you can tell they don’t like tourists. Sometimes felt unsafe because of this. Anyone from the street can walk in and use the pool.

Great staff. Just very small bedrooms and noisy between rooms. Pool is a little green, especially on the stairs. Colombo bar is awesome. Breakfast buffet is very good.
Our room wasnt ready until after 2pm but we were given a free coffee coupon to sit and have while we waited.
Tv in bedroom was the smallest Ive seen since the 80's. Bathroom was very nice and updated.

A jewel in the crown

This hotel is truly a little gem. Staff are all so courteous, helpful and friendly. Continental breakfast was excellent and the bedrooms were spotless. The beds were comfortable and the pillows were very soft.The Colombo bar/restaurant serves great food and cocktails. Having entertainment at the Colombo was added value. Will certainly recommend to friends and family. Brilliant central location to beach, shops and restaurants. Price was very reasonable. Hope to return one day.

Loved it

I stayed here for 2 nights whilst visiting Porto Santo. Peaceful, quiet and a very relaxed atmosphere - and there was a tasty continental breakfast. Thehotel was very clean and bright - there is air conditioning should you need it. It is mainly used by Portuguese guests which is super ideal for me wanting to immerse myself in all things local.The hotel is literally 5 mins walk from the centre of Vila Baleira and the beach. There are plenty lovely local restaurants, cafés and bars - perfect. The staff were friendly and helpful too. Would highly recommend.

Accueil sympathique, arrives en taxi à 11h à la descente du ferry nous avons pu laisser nos bagages dans une pièce (non surveillé) le temps que la chambre soit disponible vers 13h30.
Chambre double propre, donnant sur la piscine et le bar extérieur, avec balconnet. Ambiance très bruyante.
Literie correcte. Rien de luxueux mais confort correct.
Petits déjeuners par contre loin d’être corrects … tout est de très mauvaise qualité ! Et peu de choix.
Le jour du départ on a aussi pu laisser nos bagages dans cette pièce derrière l’accueil.
L’avantage est qu’il n’est pas loin du petit centre ville!

Nice but noisy

Staff is very kind and nice and rooms are comfortable and clean but the acoustic insulation is nonexistent. You can hear other guests talking loudly on the corridor during the night and partying all night long in adjacent rooms. I contacted reception about it and they confirmed the noise and partying and even knocked on some doors to ask people to not be so loud but I feel it was not enough as the party continued once the reception gentleman was gone. They said the hotel was maximum capacity and they couldn't provide another room that night only on the following night. If you want to rest and enjoy the silence this is a place to avoid.

A nossa estadia decorreu de forma tranquila como era esperado. O pessoal do hotel, na receção, no restaurante e as equipas de limpeza, foram sempre muito simpáticos e prestáveis quando necessário.
Trata-se de um hotel modesto, bem cuidado, localizado no centro da Vila Baleira, que permite o contacto com os portosantenses e poder apreciar o seu modo de ser e de estar.
A grande atração é sem dúvida a praia de areia dourada e o mar de tonalidades verde/azul maravilhosas, que fica muito próxima do hotel.
